But even the president of the United States, Sometimes must have, To stand naked.
Well my nerves are exploding and my body's tense;
I feel like the whole world got me pinned up against the fence
Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag;
Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag;
Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove
For all eternity I think I will remember;
That icy wind that's howling in your eye.
Three fellas crawlin' on their way back to work,;
Nobody stops to ask why.
The night passed away so quickly;
It always does when you're with me.
I wasn't born to lose you.
Well, I try my best;
To be just like I am,;
But everybody wants you;
To be just like them.
Let the wind blow low, let the wind blow high.;
One day the little boy and the little girl were both baked in a pie.
Talk about perfection, I ain't never seen none
I hear that sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
So long, New York.;
Howdy, East Orange.
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
Then she says, "I know you're an artist, draw a picture of me!";
I say, "I would if I could, but, ;
I don't do sketches from memory."
We're both just one too many mornings;
An' a thousand miles behind.
I've already ripped out the phones, honey.;
You can't walk the streets in a war
This time tomorrow I'll know you better;
When my memory is not so short.
Someone else is speakin' with my mouth, but I'm listening only to my heart.
I just want you to know;
I can see through your masks
don't criticize;
what you can't understand.
The door has closed forevermore
If indeed there ever was a door
Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
I can change, I swear, oh, oh,;
See what you can do.;
I can make it through,;
You can make it too.
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
I like the cool way you look at me,;
Everything about you is bringing me;
Misery.
I see, I see lovers in the meadow;
I see, I see silhouettes in the window;
I watch them 'til they're gone and they leave me hanging on ;
To a shadow
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,;
Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
Gon' walk on down that dirt road 'til I'm right beside the sun
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
